I was moving around some items around my desk and stumbled upon a padded envelope with some Mint Set coins that were cut apart, but still sealed in mint cello.  Contest time  Post the "face value" of the loose mint set coinage that I found in the padded envelope and WIN IT! Cents through Half Dollars are represented. No silver  , although there is copper! No zinc. There will be no images posted since some of you guys/gals are really good at counting coins from images. Only one guess per member, per calendar day. I don't get around to checking in as often as I would like to, so keep the guesses coming until I say "whoa!" Edited by oih82w8 12/27/2015 9:37 pm

EDIT I have retracted my guess, I appreciate the contest and I am eligable for it by your YN rule but id rather a US collector win. they will appreciate the coins more and it will be less postage.
Feel free to call me Will.

I am as old as dirt, or at least I feel like it, so I am out. Nice of you to help a young person advance their collection

I will certainly not disqualify anyone because of the age...stay young at heart...everyone!
These uncirculated coins would probably be more fitting for a beginners collection versus an advanced one.
Some good guesses so far...one in particular is ooooh soooo close!
I will give a hint around 5:00 PM CST tomorrow, so that those who have already guessed for today will have a fair chance.
